Toughened Glass

Glass plays an essential role in the facade. A facade is a special type of wall. It separates inside from outside. Glass is a uniform material, a solidified liquid. By its property of transparency it opens up our buildings to the outside world. In modern architecture there is tendency to open up our buildings by using very large facades that are as transparent as possible. In the external wall, glass can be used as a curtain wall or structural glazing.
Glass is not essentially transparent. They are available in several opacities and various textures and finishes. Glass is made from the following raw materials: Sand; soda-ash; limestone; dolomite; feldspar; sodium sulphate. These substances are themselves compounds of various elements.
